As for the eggshell, this should be broken into small pieces and placed in direct contact with the soil.

More options: Coffee grounds
Another option, a little less used than the previous ones, is to use coffee grounds, that rest of coffee powder left over when you strain it.
Coffee grounds are a great ally in fertilizing your succulents. And the preparation is very easy!

Ultimately, this will depend on each species. The important thing is to fertilize them so that they look more beautiful and lush!
